The annual pageant is billed as a fun evening and it was certainly that.

Miss Siberia claimed to be a cousin of former Alaska governor Sarah Palin.

Miss A rgentina said her country was “bigger than Brazil. Or maybe it’s bigger than the United States. Or something.”

Miss Madagascar (Nathan Starr) showed some pretty good dance moves in the talent competition. His companions were a novelty on this night, real girls(!) Sarah Snelson (L) and Ivory Douglas.
And Miss Sweden claimed to be her country’s champion fish eater.

So for her talent competition, she invited two RHS students onstage for a fish-eating contest.
